I purchased the The Genuine Motorized Erector Set as a Christmas gift for my grandson, in the hope that it will overshadow the current cultural trend of buy and play. I hope it will spark a creative spirit and build self confidence in his ability to conceive, design and construct. I have not seen the set, but if it is half the one I had as a boy, it will satisfy my expectations.

The product arrived quickly and was nicely packaged. It's a gift for our grandson, so we haven't got to see anything built yet, but my husband pronounced it very nice. He made sure it had all the kinds of parts he remembered from his childhood.
